The Medi-Heel Lift is an extra-firm shoe wedge that corrects functional and anatomical leg length differences, which are among the leading causes of hip and lower back pain. Place the Medi-Heel Lift in the shoe of the shorter leg, balancing the pelvis and reducing hip, knee and lumbar pain. The Medi-Heel Lift often is helpful in cases of chronic leg pain and sciatica. Wear the Medi-Heel Lift in any shoe.

What's the correct thickness for your needs? A doctor or physical therapist can determine the optimal thickness. If you are new to wearing a heel lift we suggest starting with a thinner lift. An additional lift can be added at any time. Medi-Heel Lifts are molded from a pliable, resilient, washable plastisol (not rubber) that is latex and allergy-free. Choose from thicknesses ranging from 3-12mm. By Myfootshop.com. 1 pair/pkg.

Description
FAQ's

Question:

I have been suffering from plantar fasciitis for quite some time. How is a heel lift going to help?

Answer:

The heel lift will raise the heel and weaken the mechanical forces applied to the foot by the calf easing plantar fasciitis pain and allowing the plantar fascia and Achilles tendon to heal.

Question:

What is Sever's Disease and how does a heel lift help?

Answer:

Sever's Disease first appears in children ages 7-8 years old before the growth plate in the heel is fully developed. It is usually caused by excessive tension on the Achilles tendon and plantar fascia or stress on the growth plate. A heel lift helps take the tension off of the tendon and plantar fascia. Heel lifts need to be firm so the body does not compress the lift causing more tension on the tendon and plantar fascia.

__________________________________________________________________________________________

Question:

How hard are these?

Answer:

Very firm. Heel lifts need to be firm to resist compression by your body weight. We recommend that you place them under the inner sole of the shoe or cover with a soft sole like the Pedag Soft Shoe Insole.

Question:

Due to a total hip replacement/debridement, I have a leg discrepancy of 1.75 - 2.0 inches. Would you recommend the use of multiple Medi-Heel Lifts?

Answer:

Stacking Medi-Heel Lifts is a possible solution to address your 1.75-2.0 inch leg length discrepancy. Since they are rubber, they may stay together without adhesive, but using glue or double-sided tape would ensure that they stay in place. The challenge that you're going to have though is the limit to how much you can put in the shoe and still have the shoe fit. We find that anytheng over 1/2" gets to be too bulky. At that stage, the only other alternative is to have a shoe repair shop put on a full length outer sole. So maybe plan to put 1.5" on with the outer sole and 0.5" on the inside of the shoe.
